This is an odd one for a tech site. We love doing Wasgij they are great fun. We have around 30 of them. Are there any fellow Wasgij jigwas puzzle fans here. 





Here is a crazy notion, lets give peace a chance.

Yea we have quite a few here too.

 

Seems to be a Christmas thing to do in our family and extended family as well.





Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.

We tend to do them over the winter months. Have one sitting on the desk and do a bit each day. We swap them around friends and family. They certainly can be tricky sometimes.

We did several many years - 20? - ago, but not since then. Did enjoy them at the time.





Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

Yes, my favourite jigsaw.  Get from the charity shops and then recycle them back.  Keep a list (73 and counting) of what I have completed (with photo).

Seems to be the weather for it at the moment :-(

I do find them relaxing/therapeutic.

We have a lot especially the see into the future ones or look what’s behind you . We also do the Lego ones as well , highly recommended the puzzle maps often wake up to find the cats done zoomies overnight and pieces have flown everywhere https://www.mightyape.co.nz/mn/buy/mighty-ape-deluxe-jigsaw-puzzle-board-carrier-1000pc-34008780/

My wife and mother in law do them often.  We usually inherit them after she's done. There must be 20 or so in the garage now.

OK, that was a bit insane.

 

Those puzzle boards look nice, but I think I prefer a more slippy surface to slide connected pieces around on.

 

My puzzle board is a cheap as whiteboard.

Those Lego ones look frustrating. Our ones are all cartoons of amusing situations.
